Fast negative breakdown in thunderstorms
Nature Communications, 2019 Recent studies have shown that lightning is initiated by a newly-recognized discharge process called fast positive breakdown. Here, the authors present observational evidence of fast breakdown but of negative polarity, seemingly contrary to current ...

Interpreting Charles Lamb’s ‘Neat-Bound Books’
Studia Anglica Posnaniensia, 2019 In this paper we consider a much-quoted phrase published by the essayist Charles Lamb (1775–1834) in the London Magazine in 1822 about a desirable quality in books: that they should be ‘strong-backed and neat-bound’. We identify meanings of modifier neat

Atomic oxygen photometric temperature of lightning and its sub-processes with SOPAPILLA
Scientific ReportsInformation on the temperature of lightning sub-processes is crucial to constrain the chemical and energetic impacts of lightning. However, the peer-reviewed literature on even the most energetic of these processes is scant. In this article, we present a
